”SAN FRAN goes STHLM”

Exhibition by Marie-Louise Ullmark at Scandic Park January 28 – March 11

Marie-Louise Ullmark has been living and working in USA for more than 26 years. In 2010, when moving back to Stockholm from San Francisco, she couldn’t leave the city behind. She brought San Fran along in her artistry.

”In August 2001 I started to paint. I have always felt drawn to artistic expressions and at that point in my life I had the opportunity to indulge in a new career – the one of an artist. In December the same year, I had my very first exhibition in San Francisco. Since then I have done 21 solo exhibitions and have been participaiing in 23 group exhibitions.”

Marie-Louise Ullmark is an abstract painter. Her paintings are in acrylic on canvas, photos and plexiglass. To create a depth to her paintings, she works with scrapers, rubber squee gees and of course brushes.

”I get my inspiration from everyday life. I always listen to music when painting. I sort of let the music guide my movements, which brings a kind of rhythm into the paintings. To paint is for me an adventure!”

Enjoy!Marie-Louise Ullmark

”Expressionistic abstract works and soulful faces” at Scandic Park

Arman Sultani creates expressionistic abstract works with spontaneous silvery movments with beutiful colors. His composiotions can be compared to musical arrangments, Strong contrast are blended exemplary and with a superb sense of harmony. His paitings are fascinating and mysterious. He is constantley experimenting with figurative and surrealistic elemnts. Beside the abstract works Arman enters, with curiosity, the minds of personalities from history and pop culture resulting in colourful portraits.”To begin on a new canvas feels like a dip in a northern ocean cold and uncomfortable, but still with a excitement to continue. Painting for me is a way to connect to the world around me. I want to show the course of my life. I paint my everyday feelings and in the rythm of the music, I find my composition. To mix colors is a challange that I love. It makes me feel that I’m transfered into a different dimension where my soul takes control and makes me live my life.Welcome to get a glimpse of my world!”Enjoy!Arman Sultani

We usually refer to stones as dead matter, but when put together in perfect balance on a canvas, magic happens! The artist Annica Johansson plays with our perception of stones. She brings granite and greyston into life in fascinating portraits – as clear as daylight!

With the same viviant approach the artist portays some of our most beloved icons: Greta Garbo, Ingrid Bergman to mention some. Intimate and with a gentle hand Annica Johansson presents us her personal view of souls from the past – an emotional encounter!

About Annica JohanssonSince 1996 Annica Johansson has been engaged as artist, having her working space in a studio, once the study room of the director Ingmar Bergman, at Gamla Filmstaden in Solna – the Swedish counterpart to Hollywood. The cinematheque amibence at Gamla Filmstaden inspires Annica in her daily work. Movie stars as: Greta Garbo, Ingrid Bergman, began their careers just next door to Annica, which reflects on a sequence of paintings showing the actresses as movie stars, feministic icons or just as the women they were.

”Stones in balance” is a series of paitings on canvas exploring stones put together forming portraits of solid matter.
